a year ago or so somebody "discovered" that a famous swedish cartoon (bamse the worlds strongest bear) had some drug innuendo..
one of the main characters drank magic potions called Enioreh and Enihprom by a magician called Rehsup.. or something like that. the cartoon was released in 1988 and I think it actually was anti-drug, but there was a lot of noise about it.

hmm this is arguable, but that cartoon "scooby doo" seemingly hints at weed usage. i mean, come on....shaggy and scooby are always paranoid and seeing things, shaggy has the appearance of a full stoner, and scooby goes nuts whenever he';s given his munchies dosage. and that van....i bet compression sessions are oft held in it. even the common term "scooby" (like spliffs jays doobies etc) must be more than coincidental...

There was a late night channel 4 show that actually played the clip the e-mail is on about. Can't remember the show but I'm sure Chris Morris was involved somewhere.

The show was TV Offal. Chris Morris wasn't involved; the show was actually by Victor Lewis-Smith, who takes every opportunity to publicly criticise Morris (see here).
Lewis-Smith introduced it as "the unscreened pilot" for Rainbow, when it was in fact made by the Rainbow team as an in-joke; there was no clever re-editing on VLS's part involved.
Geoffrey: "The VT department of each ITV company, every Christmas had a competition to enter all the outtakes from their particular companies programme out put, and see which ones were the funniest. But ours wasn’t an outtake, we specially did it. It was specially scripted and we did it and I never saw it! We did it and Thames won it, but what they actually won, I don’t know. But I never saw the video. I can’t remember much about it except for Zippy with a banana."

Who is Victor-Lewis Smith? He seems like a bit of a dick.
